I'm finally spending more time writing code, instead of watching videos and copying code.

I am admittedly slower than most, but I tend not to give up. About half my learning curve ago some one posted an article. I don't have it, but I remembered one thing. The author talked about the journey of learning to program. The "wall" that many people hit, where it becomes exponentially harder. Finally, leaving the "hand holding stage". The hand holding stage. I guess I finally left the hand holding stage. It feels good :D

Kudos to you! I believe the article to which you're referring is here and it's brilliant. Here is another one along those same lines, if you're interested and by the same person. They're both really good reads especially if one is feeling discouraged about their progress. I've read each one more than once :smiley:

Thanks Jennifer

Thats awesome man!

:D
